What Our Editors Thought
A touch of C-hops–style mustiness with a lemon streak shooting through it gives way to a slightly-less-crisp-than-expected body that is light on the brut and heavy on classic West Coast hops and English yeast esters.
What Our Panel Thought
Initial strong pineapple, mango, and guava aroma. Light background bready pale-malt aroma. Light body with minimal sweetness. Fruity hops turn somewhat citrus in the flavor. Aftertaste has soft bitterness, drying without being astringent. Lively carbonation prevents the beer from feeling thin.
What the Brewers Say
A wealth of Galaxy and Citra hops gives low bitterness and big tropical flavor. Citrus notes abound in this smooth, refreshing, champagne-like brew.
